The heroes of 1899 are brought to life with the help of some expensive special effects in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. From the pages of Victorian literature come Captain Nemo, Dr. Jekyll (and his alter ego Mr. Hyde), Dorian Gray, Tom Sawyer, an Invisible Man, Mina Harker (from Dracula), and the hunter Allan Quatermain (Sean Connery), all brought together to combat an evil megalomaniac out to conquer the world. Hardly an original plot, but perhaps that's fitting for a movie sewn together like Frankenstein's monster. The movie rushes from one frenetic battle to another, replacing sense with spectacle--Nemo's submarine rising from the water, a warehouse full of zeppelins bursting into flame, Venice collapsing into its own canals; flashy, dumb, and completely incoherent. Fans of the original comic book will be disappointed. Also featuring Peta Wilson, Shane West, Stuart Townsend, Richard Roxburgh, and Jason Flemyng. --Bret Fetzer
Description
A hunter, a scientist, a vampire, an invisible man, an immortal, a spy, a beast?when a masked madman known as "The Fantom" threatens to launch global Armageddon, legendary adventurer Allan Quatermain (Sean Connery) commands a legion of superheroes, the likes of which mankind has never seen. Now, despite fighting their own personal demons - and each other - they mush join forces to save the world. Sean Connery leads a stellar cast in this breathtaking, "thrill-a-minute" (Jeffrey Lyons, NBC-TV) extravaganza loaded with "eye-popping effects and amazing action!" (Bill Bregoli, Westwood One)

 Folks, this is a classic! March 2, 2010
R. Bennet
OK, I have read all the reviews - well...most of 'em - and I have to say that many of this movie's critics have forgotten how to have fun. I am 55 years old, and I still remember reading the classics in my bed late into the night, because I couldn't wait to see what happened next! (Arabian Nights, Robinson Crusoe, Black Beauty, King Arthur's Court, Tom Sawyer, 20,000 Leagues..., Dracula, Frankenstein, etc etc etc. Some of it a kid could relate to, but a lot of it simply required suspension of disbelief. I was a voracious reader, well beyond my age group, and I was eager for adventure...and I still am. I still want to be entertained, and this movie captures my imagination. I like it better every time I see it. Stop critiquing the flaws and enjoy. BTW - Blu-ray color and sound is wonderful, but they should have included all the special features - FROM THE REGION 2 UK RELEASE!!

If you are a fan of this movie and thinking of buying the blu-ray do not hesitate, it is stunningly clear and at the bargain price they got it here for it's a steal.
 The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (Blu-ray) February 16, 2010
Kevin T. Skelton
I give this Blu-ray PQ 5 stars, a Grain Free transfer! Crystal clear 1080p image. As for the movie subject, I have to rate it 4 stars! I am still glad to add this movie to my Blu-ray collection. 5 star PQ is hard to find on Blu-ray!
"If you can't do it with one bullet, don't do it at all." Blu-ray Review. January 17, 2010
A. Scultore (NY)
The LXG is a fun popcorn flick. I have read the graphic novel and found that the only real similarities are the characters. The movie is fun and enjoyable. Someone said this is a family flick? Ummm, no. Unless everyone in the house is 13 or older. Don't expect to much and you will have a blast!
NOW MY BLU-RAY THOUGHTS: It looks better and sounds better! However, they did not carry over any of the special features or very few of them. Only worth an upgrade to the hardcore fan. FINAL VERDICT: NOT UPGRADE WORTHY.
BLU RAY VERSION January 15, 2010
AVID MOVIE WATCHER (USA)
BLU-RAY VERSION IS WORTH BUYING. I DON'T NEED TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE MOVIE, OTHERS ALREADY HAVE. BUT, NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE TELL YOU IF IT IS WORTH UPGRADING FROM YOUR REGULAR DVD TO BLU-RAY. THIS ONE IS WORTH IT. COLORS ARE STUNNING AND SOUNDS GREAT.
